Chapter 4 Pearl Inn
The backyard of the Pearl Inn, a place to eat, a relatively quiet space.
Li Weide, Zeng Yiqi and Baili Gu rested here.
"Shopkeeper Liu, will anyone come to collect money after this?" Zeng Yiqi asked the owner of the Pearl Inn.
"Uh-huh! Pearl Cliff City can't stand you. It's a troubled time, full of refugees, and outrageous thugs, and all the protection money will happen. Everyone, Zhuya City was originally a small town, where can it take in so many slang people, so some people can't do this kind of thing," Shopkeeper Liu looked at Li Lao, "Since this old man knows Lord Shi Lingtong, he must know Zhuya City." ”
"I'm ashamed, the old man hasn't been to Zhuya, but I've heard that the main thing in Zhuya City is the lord of Shilingtong. ”
"Eh, the Pearl Cliff City two years ago can be said to be the Pearl Cliff City of Lord Shi Lingtong. But now, there are too many newcomers, and if they have a little ambition, they want to take advantage of the troubled times. They acted together and drove the forces of Lord Shi Lingtong to a small part of the old city. From here to the sea, it becomes an area where they collect protection money. ”
"So the Pearl Inn is where Uncle Ji Mao Song charges?"
"Exactly. ”
"Hmph, what kind of ability is it to loot those refugees who have just been relocated?" Zeng Yiqi said.
"Brother Zeng, not really. This Uncle Ji Mao Song is still a righteous person. He never embarrassed us locals, and he really protected us. I think he's got some skills. As for refugees, not all of them are difficult. There are also some wealthy families in Leizhou pretending to be refugees. These are the people that Uncle Ji Mao Song wants to loot. ”
"Should the rich and noble be robbed of money?"
"But only these rich and noble families have money to be robbed!"
Where can Zeng Yiqi explain these truths!
"Hmph, there's no reason to fight with others! Isn't it boring?" Baili laughed at him.
"Then you say, what should I say about this?"
"It's just the law of the jungle, where is there so much truth? I don't have the ability, I deserve to be robbed. Baili Gu's theory has always been like this, simple and rude, and reasonable, "Shopkeeper Liu, presumably those people today already think that we are rich and noble?"
"Exactly. ”
"So, you're here with us now to prevent us from running away?" Baili was laughing. Her words startled both Li Lao and Hongmei.
"Are you in a group with them?" Hongmei pulled Dr. Lachu and asked Shopkeeper Liu.
"Don't worry, girl, I'm just doing my inn business. and they are clearly distinguished," explained the shopkeeper Liu, but there is a problem with this explanation.
"You are also a black shop?" Doctor Chu understood this.
"No, no, absolutely not, we are an official post and will never do anything in a black shop. ”
"Looks like the gangsters are going to be here tonight. Shopkeeper Liu said very clearly, he is clearly distinguished from the bandits. The gangsters came to rob, and he took advantage of the fire to rob, and each did his own thing. If we are killed, Shopkeeper Liu can collect our luggage directly. Isn't that right?"
Shopkeeper Liu really didn't deny it, "This girl is really reasonable." If you are killed, no one else will ask for your luggage, so I can take it!"
"Hmph, you don't have a good heart anyway!" Hongmei was angry.
"Don't be angry, girl. It can be seen that you don't take the gangsters seriously at all. According to your ability, I'm afraid it's futile tonight, but I beg to see the fun! haha!"
"I can laugh!"
"So the person who is coming tonight is the Uncle Ji Mao Song I just mentioned?" Zeng Yiqi asked Shopkeeper Liu.
"This is Uncle Chicken Feather's territory. It must be him who makes the first move, and if he fails, it is not excluded that there will be others to come. ”
"Shopkeeper Liu doesn't seem to be an ordinary person anymore. Knowing that we have the ability, we are still talking and laughing here. Waste, do you learn to do something?" Baili said, pointing to Zeng Yiqi.
"Baili, can you stop calling me waste, I told you a long time ago, don't call me like that, why did you talk about it again?" Zeng Yiqi was a little embarrassed.
"Okay, I won't call you a waste in the future. So what should I call you?"
"Zeng Si and B Banner are fine. ”
"Okay, I'll call you flatbread from now on!"
Zeng Yiqi frowned, what a fart, the flatbread is the name of my sorrowful demon.
"Okay, then I'll call you lonely in the future~"
"Lone what?"
"Lonely!"
"It's good, it's better than a lonely grave. ”
"Brother Zeng, Baili girl, don't play. Speaking of business, there are gangsters coming tonight," Hongmei had to remind them.
"Hang the head of Shopkeeper Liu outside the inn, presumably no one will dare to enter the door!" Baili said to Hongmei.
"Why?"
"Although the Pearl Inn is not a black shop, it is a black shop. Boss Qiu's silver was only seen by two groups. One is a man who is a chicken feather pine, and they don't know silver yet. The other one is this shopkeeper Liu. If there are gangsters coming after Ji Maosong, it must be the shopkeeper Liu who notified. If such a person does not kill him, will he remain to harm others?"
What Baili said was reasonable and well-founded, which made Li Lao and Dr. Chu, who were going to the rivers and lakes for the first time, stupid. Everyone looked at Shopkeeper Liu. Now Shopkeeper Liu is not calm.
"Girl, spare your life, this matter has nothing to do with me. Most of the bigwigs in Pearl Cliff City have arranged eyeliner in the inn. When Boss Qiu gave the silver, everyone saw it, so I guessed that there would be gangsters tonight. ”
"Hmph, Qiu Bufan is not a good thing, though. But he has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and it is impossible not to know the truth that wealth does not leak. Even if you give you money, it will not be seen by others, it must be that you deliberately show it to others. This girl is in a good mood today, so I'll explain it to you. Now, either you cut off a hand yourself, or I'll take your life!" Baili's short knife had been pulled out and was cutting branches.
Zeng Yiqi felt that she was serious. And others don't believe it, two or three sentences are going to kill, is it possible?
Shopkeeper Liu was in a hurry, and on the night of March, he was also sweating profusely. This woman is an old man, and she is by no means a waste material full of trains. Today, he saw the woman pierce the javelin's palm with one chopstick. Can you handle this kind of kung fu by yourself?
"What? you want me to do it," Baili began to look expressionless. Now, everyone has seen the expression of Shopkeeper Liu, and they almost believe that Baili will really kill people.
"Baili, can't you let him tell those gangsters and tell them not to come and die?"
"Flatbread, dogs can't change their. If you call it a gangster, how can you call it a gangster if you don't come?"
"Lonely,"
"Huh?"
"Is there no other way?"
"Hey, a man with such a soft heart is a man with no ambitions," Baili laughed at him, but relented, "Tie him up outside the inn!" If you come again, you will be killed!"
Shopkeeper Liu immediately knelt on the ground, "Thank you grandma for sparing her life!"
Hearing this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. looked at Baili, and they all showed expressions of admiration.
This woman, a cow! In a few words, this shopkeeper Liu was subdued. No wonder Zeng Yiqi had to save her after all the hardships.
